SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline/at catheter placement; PIV placement duration ranges from 3-15 minutes

Population: The number of patients analyzed in each group differs from the numbers in the Participant Flow due to missing data (n = 6 in Study Device arm and n = 1 in the Control Arm).

Patient Satisfaction was measured at initial PIV placement using a 5 Point Likert Scale: 5 - Very Comfortable, 4 - Somewhat Comfortable, 3 - Neutral, 2- Somewhat Uncomfortable, 1 - Very Uncomfortable
